He certainly looks like he has some other health issues that are probably compounded or contributing to his pneumonia.




Prayers up.....Through good times and bad, Cecil has been a fixture around Bama sports as long as I can remember.......

Cecil is the last good sports writer, and a good guy. Really hope he gets better.

Prayers for Cecil.

He's always been so connected with the fans. Other writers are either ill-informed or condescending... not this guy.

I remember listening to him on Finebaum back during the Shula years when I was in school. The guy is hilarious but also so insightful if you can read between the lines. National treasure.

He could have been a national guy a long time ago but stayed here. We are lucky to have him.

Cecil was the best sports writer in Alabama since Al Browning. Browning left for a cushy job in Knoxville but Cecil never left despite plenty of opportunity. Loves UA and Tuscaloosa too much. Get well soon Cecil. Bama sports needs you.

Update from Hunter Johnson:

Cecil is stable and showing signs of improvement. Getting the absolute best care possible at UAB. Still a long road ahead but dude is battling.
